Comforting Big Baby
Sometimes when the girls are grumpy, whining or throwing fits, I ask them if they want to play big baby. I swaddle them in a blanket; feed them a cup of milk; and then rock them a while. Today, during home school I wrapped up my big babies; set them in their cradles and gave them stories to read. This lasted about 20 minutes. It was worth the time with the other children.

perfect! another idea- 'put crabs in the water'- put them in the bathtub! this does mean staying in the bathroom with the crabby kids and schooling whoever is left
